Popular Post webfact Posted September 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2018 Donald Trump urged Spain to 'build the wall' – across the Sahara Spanish foreign minister says US president advised tactic to stem migration across the Med Sam Jones in Madrid The Guardian Donald Trump suggested the Spanish government tackled the Mediterranean migration crisis by emulating one of his most famous policies and building a wall across the Sahara desert, the country’s foreign minister has revealed. According to Josep Borrell, the US president brushed off the scepticism of Spanish diplomats – who pointed out that the Sahara stretched for 3,000 miles – saying: “The Sahara border can’t be bigger than our border with Mexico.” Trump wooed voters in the 2016 election with his promise to build a “big, beautiful wall” across the US/Mexico border, which is roughly 2,000 miles long.

Popular Post neeray Posted September 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2018 He doesn't look at maps or listen to his administration, just mouths off without thinking. Thus, looks like the fool he is to the rest of the world. November 6 is coming real soon .... real soon!

What does this even mean. The 2018 elections haven't even been held yet. Just fake news. There is no "news" in my post, fake or otherwise, merely conversation. Just for your enlightenment, US campaigning usually starts about 2 years out from elections. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melilla and Ceuta are both very small enclaves on the Mediterranean coast. Hundreds of miles from the Sahara. Even if there was an impractical wall built (wiki says it's 4,800km) I'm sure it wouldn't last long. When I went across the Sahara more than thirty years ago, the route we took was marked every kilometre or so by strobe lamps on tall metal poles. They were supposed to work at night, the batteries buried at the base of the pole were charged by a solar panel located on the top of the pole. None of them worked though, as the 'locals' realised very quickly they could dig up the batteries and sell them. They would probably dismantle the wall too and sell pieces of it for scrap.

I think it was lost in translation, and he meant "build a huge wall of hotels and condos starting at Malaga, and keep those Brits out but make them pay for it with Sangria".

He has obviously no clue, how big (or in his words "hiusch") the Sahara is! He has obviously no clue, that Spain has no Sahara- border! Or he thinks, the Sahara is just an empty plot of land, where Spain can just waltz in and build a wall! He has obviously no clue about the - kinda- hostile work environment in the Sahara! ... ... ...
